In Germany perhaps.
The information on the packaging is abut the EU facilities, mostly Germany.



AIUI, commercial places etc. are supposed to dispose of them properly,

My council is supposed to have facilities for tubes but I have never
been to the dump to check out what they say. I tend to put stuff in the
bin otherwise it is kicking about the front garden for months waiting
for enough to get rid of to justify the trip to the dump.
